Have been San Francisco to SD multiple times in the Vette. Carmel south is spectacular until you get through Santa Barbara then just busy highway to San Diego, which IMO is a great destination. I also drove the Angles Crest Highway east out of LA and as far as driving, that was outstanding as are some of the canyon roads around LA. Try to fit that into the schedule. The PCH isn't about driving so much as looking. Just spectacular views mile after mile. Just don't count on a lot of spirited driving.

Is it really worth taking a week off work and driving? Attached is the route I'd take. I'd start north and work my way south.
$5 says everyone reading this thinks you live in Tool-E. How many posts before they find out you don't.

I also, like Rikki, think the trip is better than work.

You've clearly never tried to drive through Santa Barbara or Laguna Beach.

I would bail off of PCH around Santa Maria to avoid the traffic nightmare between Santa Barbara and San Diego.

I second the recommendation of Angeles Crest Highway. There are many nice roads in inland San Diego county as well.

Hahaha. Good ole Tool-E. No one thinks something spelled Tooele would be pronounced Too-illah.
